Smoke & Sweets
And we are
And we are, we're falling down
We are, we hit the ground
So hard you don’t know
And we are, we’re later now
We are, we’re later till you don't find where you’ve gone
Till you don’t know the way home
And I'm looking back and I don't know if you are
(if you are, if you are, if you are)
You take your mind and you let it go to far
And I've come around and baby you don’t know
How to let it go
And I, and I
Don't know how to let it go
And I, and I
Don't know how to let it go
We lie
We lie beneath the ground
We lie beneath the earth
So deep you don’t know
We crawl we’re crawling out
We are, we're crawling till you don’t know where you’ve gone
Till you don't know the way back
And I'm looking back and I don't know if you are
(if you are, if you are, if you are)
You take your mind and you let it go to far
And I've come around and baby you don’t know
How to let it go...
The only who tells you to let go
Breaking through the door I want to see how
The only one who comes back and says no
Your eyes change and roll back on the come down
You've got the one who tells you to be so
Breaking through the door I want feel how
How it hurts if you choose to say no
Your eyes change and roll back on the come down
And I, and I
He comes back, he comes back he says no
Your eyes change and roll back on the come down
And I, and I
He comes back, he comes back he says no
Your eyes change and roll back on the come down
And I, and I
Don't know how to let it go
And I, and I
Don't know how to let it go.

You wouldn’t be at all surprised to know
They stole her vows before asking her to go
Would it be so strange for her to use
This fickle power she’s learned to abuse
To a place where the ice breathes
And death’s but between sheets
You’ve left what you once had
But the door locks in the keep
And they say she was always mad
The girl with the bloodied hands
That they sooth with melted meat
As such holy text demands
Perform it all I see
The day slowly dawning
With cut tongues and broken teeth
The light slowly forming
Maintain treasured as you please
The night slowly calling
Bent backs and heavy knees
Your gaze carefully crawling
A new rouge to start the show
A fresh you raring to go
A speck of blood upon the lip
Hidden amongst such spender is
‘Perform it all’ I see...
It’s three in the morning
Cut around day dreams
All but stained cotton
Walk to the village sore
Past cattle and laboured hordes
Cut around day dreams
With losses long forgotten
Perform it all I see
The day slowly dawning
With cut tongues and broken teeth
The light slowly forming
Maintain treasured as you please
The night slowly calling
Bent backs and heavy knees
Your gaze carefully crawling
A new rouge to start the show
A fresh you raring to go
A speck of blood upon the lip
Hidden amongst such spender is
I wouldn’t be at all surprised to know
They stole her vows before asking her to go
I wouldn’t be at all surprised to know
They stole her vows before asking her to go
Perform it all I see
The day slowly dawning
With cut tongues and broken teeth
The light slowly forming
Maintain treasured as you please
The night slowly calling
Bent backs and heavy knees
Your gaze carefully crawling
A new rouge to start the show
A fresh you raring to go
A speck of blood upon the lip
Hidden amongst such spender is
You wouldn’t be at all surprised to know
They stole her vows before asking her to go
Would it be so strange for her to use
This fickle power she’s learned to abuse.

I am on an island connected to land
If I didn't see it for myself I wouldn't understand
Buildings like ships, stuck on the shore
There's a weight of expectation that leans on my door
The people, the waves, that crash and wear down
Since when did isolation become so loud?
If I bide my time I can make a start before it gets light before I
Get light headed and I forget where I'm headed
If I bide my time I can make a start before it gets light before I
Get light headed and I forget where I'm headed
I know I'd regret it
And it's up to the moon to guide me through this deep blue
I hope I don't drown before I
Get to you
So take me away or bring me home
I can't live like this
The middle ground is deeply worn
And I brought the wrong shoes
Bring me a punchline delivered with crush
Offered my place to return to your touch
Bring me a punchline delivered with crush
But nobody's talking
Bring me punchline delivered with crush
Offered my place to return to your touch
Bring me punchline delivered with crush
Offered my place to return to your touch

Someone Else's House

Shadows and bones
Through a gate
Only ghosts know
Keep them safe
In untainted eyes
We may see what ahead us lies
Memories and snow
Through a haze
Before the light goes
Dusk turns to shade
In clouded eyes
We may see what behind us dies
Living in the back room
Of someone else’s house
The wind blows through
The wind blows out
Shadows and bones
Through a haze
Only ghosts know
Dusk turns to shade
In peculiar times
In those beside us confide
Living in the back room
Of someone else’s house
The wind blows through
The wind blows out
Splintered hands upon the wood
Of boards blocking out
The sound could be true
The sound I can hear it now
Trying not to get to
Let me trip down
The choice of a life
True nothing else has ever been so loud
Living in the back room
Of someone else’s house
The wind blows through
The wind blows out
Splintered hands upon the wood
Of boards blocking out
The sound could be true
The sound I can hear it now
Shadows & bitter bones
For who, the finest grave?
Letting go of memories thrown
Down the forgotten way.

The Well

To the well I came for truth
Water below share all that you know
But you weren’t ready for the truth
To your bed I came for love
Was I enough to make you really see
I wasn’t brought here to be used
Take me once again
To the shore where you said I was yours
To white sands, shells and steady hands
Oh please god just tell me one again
I was drinking a harboured lie
Help me out
Or let me go
Don’t say you’ll catch me
When you’re not even close
Help me heal
Or say you won’t
You swear you’ll say you love me
When they’ve got you by the throat
I was drinking a harboured lie
To the well I came for truth
Water below share all that you know
But you weren’t ready for the truth
So take me once again
To the shore where you said I was yours
To white sands, shells and steady hands
Oh please god just help me understand.
